IOS 8 crashes when maps appear.

Ever since I purchased my iPhone 6 in November, I've had apps crash on me whenever a "locating map" appears onscreen. If I browse my Facebook app's newsfeed and see someone has shared their location (where a map showing there location appears) the whole app crashes. It's not just the Facebook app, it crashes whenever a map of locations appears any app (Ex: Find iPhone crashes before the map appears; Starbucks crashes when I look up Starbucks locations near me). The weird thing is that Google maps works fine, but Apple maps crashes. Does anyone have any solutions? I feel like I'm not the only one with this problem.

The problem is solved. Just update to iOS 8.2 and it fixes the problem right away. My phone works perfect...for now lol

Pages for iOS crashes when using iCloud

Hi!
Pages for iPad & iPhone crashes when connected to iCloud. It started about a month ago.
I have now upgraded both units to 7.0.4 but it still crashes. I have copied all files from Pages for iCloud to my computer and deleted all Pages document files from iCloud. But it still crashes. Pages for iCloud is doing fine though. But I still cannot use Pages for my iOS units.
Any suggestions, please?
Regards Anders Enkvist, Stockholm, Sweden

Same thing is happening to me on a iPad mini Retina. Apple phone support had me Reset All Settings and it worked for several minutes, then started crashing again. I have Reset All Settings several times in Settings>General>Reset and each time it works for several minutes and then starts crashing again.
When I turn off Use iCloud in Settings>Pages, all my iCloud documents are there and Pages seems to be working, but the documents are not syncing with the ones in iCloud.
Pages syncs fine with iCloud on my iPhone 5s and iPad 3rd Generation. The only difference is that on my iPad mini there are different Apple IDs being used for iTunes and iCloud. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895 says this is fine to do. I tried making the Apple IDs the same on the iPad mini and it the same crashing occured.
subarustevo, are you using the same Apple IDs for iCloud and iTunes?

ANE on IOS crash when test application with slow debug

Hello everybody,
I'm facing a weird problem,
I add the NativeWindow ANE on my applicaton and call it in some button. When I'm testing the application compiled on fast test or fast debug, it's working fine. But when I'm testing the application compiled on slow debug or slow test then the application with close immediatly after calling that NativeWindow.
Is it a common issue?
I am on Adobe AIR 3.3.
Thank you so much for your help,
Cheers !

Open Outlook with /safe command (Or hold Ctrl key when open Outlook) starts Outlook without the Reading Pane or toolbar customizations. Both native and managed Component Object Model (COM) add-ins are turned off. To narrow down the cause,
you can also try /safe:1 and /safe:3 commands.
/safe:1 Starts Outlook with the Reading Pane off.
/safe:3 Both native and managed Component Object Model (COM) add-ins are turned off.
To do this, press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type outlook.exe /safe:1
and press Enter.
In addition, you can refer to the steps in this article to troubleshoot issue that Outlook does not crash when you start it in safe mode. See the "Step 6: Start Outlook in safe mode" section:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2934538/en-us
Please let me know the result.

ITunes 12.0.1 crashes when restoring iPad 3 iOS 8.1

Hi,
I updated our iPad 3 (err the new iPad) to iOS 8.1. In order to do so, I had to do the full restore process. We use W7P64.
iTunes now crashes all the time, so we have an iPad with black apps "waiting", and unstable iTunes 12.0.1, it crashes after about 1 minute. Great. Unstable iTunes, useless iPad.
Here's the error:
I've tried reinstalling iTunes, turning on "Prevent Devices from Syncing Automatically"
Any other suggestions appreciated. iTunes folder is on a network drive.

Despite resetting iPad, uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes, Shift+Start iTunes and use a mapped drive for iTunes library, it still crashes when syncing. The only way to keep iTunes working, and remove the "Waiting" icons on 50+ apps, was to
Check "Prevent Devices from Syncing Automatically"
Uncheck "Sync over WiFi" when the device is connected in iTunes
I then deleted the "waiting" apps one by one, will reinstall from the iPad app store.
WP8.1 is just getting so much better, more quickly, than the iOS environment...

Iphone 5S iphoto crashing when trying to select and create folders on IOS 8.0.2

The iPhoto app keeps crashing when I try to make a new folder. Don't get me started on the "recently added" tab. I cannot access my entire library anymore through apps because they can't find my entire library. They can only see the recently added tab and any other custom tab made. Therefore I need to create and move all of my photos to another custom tab. But, the app crashes every time I try. Any input would be appreciated!

Hello Nosewitdot,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help in this situation. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice concerning device issues:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
How to restart
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
How to reset
You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
Get more help
See what to do if your device still doesn't respond or doesn't turn on.
Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

IOS 5 Mail crashes when replying to an email from Android device

When ever I reply to an email sent to me from an Android device on my iPad or iPhone the mail client crashes when I hit send.
This is occurring with all iOS users in our organisation.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Just completed a conference call, with a rep for Sprint Corporate accounts and an Apple Senior Technician.
The company for which I work has a large fleet of wireless devices, including iPhones, iPads and Adroid phones.
Through several tests, Apple, Sprint and I narrowed it down to this:
Apple iOS devices are UNABLE to reply to Android e-mails:
When the Android user has modified the signature, AND the e-mail is sent through a Microsoft Exchange Server, using ActiveSync.
Apple iOS devices ARE able to send replies to Android e-mails:
When the Android user has modified the signature AND the e-mail is sent via a server other than Microsoft Exchange. (e.g. Gmail and Yahoo Mail)
Apple iOS devices ARE able to send replies to Android e-mails:
Which still have the defualt signature (i.e. "Sent from my HTC Evo", etc.) The type of e-mail server does not appear to affect the result in this case.
Next stop: Microsoft Exchange Technical Support. (Of course, Microsoft will blame it on Android and Apple.)
Don't know what we'll do, then.

HT204088 Why does AppStore crash when I try to return to Utilities category after viewing a second or third app (AppStore quits ,iPad (1.1) goesto home page with AppStore on it. 20+ of 32GB available, 28 apps installed, iOS 5.1.1 (says sw "up to date")

My ipad(1.1) jumps out of Appstore after I've viewed 2or 3 apps, seems to be happening more often now. It returns to the page the Appstore icon is on. When I select Appstore again, it opens on the page of the last app downloaded, then I can return and browse Utilities category until next crash. It has 20+ GB available of 32GB, 28 apps installed, I don't use iTunes. I don't know what OS is installed, it's not cellular enabled. I haven't checked other categories and unsure if reducing open browser tabs affects the problem, possibly lets Appstore run longer before crashing. It always crashes when I attempt to return to the category. OSVersion is 5.1.1, Update Check says software is up to date. It has crashed if I scroll thru the pages of apps too fast.

If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CSeq "I/O error"
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.

Hi,
The Event Viewer can be a great help to determine the root cause of an issue or to find new leads in case regular troubleshooting of Outlook didn’t bring any results.
Open the Event Viewer:
Press Win + R and type “eventvwr” in the blank box, then press Enter.
You may find the Error Entries for Outlook, also Event ID, text description after the crash happens, post the information in the forum and maybe we can find something useful to find the root cause.
You may know more about Event logs from this article below:

Apps crash when they load maps!

Every time an app has to load a map (Facebook when people have checked in, or rightmove when selecting show on map option), it crashes or freezes. The maps app works fine...please help

Just tried two other apps that use maps and they both crashed when I tried to use that function on them. Please help!

The crash report always appears whenever I start up my PC and open Firefox, it does not appear when I close Firefox.

Everytime I start up my PC and open Firefox, the crash report will appear. The crash report does not appear subsequently, it only appears when I first open Firefox. I do not seem to have problems when using Firefox otherwise, though I do get new Firefox windows opening and showing me spam.

Map crashes when entering a search term

Map repeatedly crashed when I kept typing in "T" - before I could put the whole search term in "Target".
Any ideas. i thought it related to an address book entry - but not so.

I finally bit the bullet and decided enough was enough. This bug has basically rendered Maps useless on my iPad. I read the posts about the solution to set up the iPad as a new device rather than setting it from some other back up. I have tons of information in the various apps I have so losing my saved data is not at all reasonable. Here is what I did:
First, *I manually backed up my iPad* (in iTunes, right-click the iPad in the list on the left and select "Backup"). I realize most iPads back up on each sync, but I wanted to be sure I had the MOST up-to-date backup possible.
Second, *I did a software restore on the iPad* from the summary page of the iPad (in iTunes, next to software update checker). This took a while as it had to download the iPhone OS 3.2 installer. It finally finished.
Third, iTunes saw the device and started the walk through on setting up the device. The first question it asked was whether I wanted to set it up as new Device or restore a backup. *I chose New Device*. When it got done, it wanted to sync everything under the sun to the iPad. I went through and told it to sync nothing, thus effectively leaving it untouched.
Fourth, *I used the Maps App and verified that this did infact fix the searching bug.* I was able to use every key in the search field and perform all manner of searching without the Maps App crashing. Pleased was I.
Last, *I decided to then restore* (again by right-clicking the iPad in the devices list) from my backup. I thought, "What the ****, it's worth a try." At this point, restoring the backup in a best-case scenario would put all my vital data back on the iPad and still leave Maps App working. In a worst-case scenario, I would be where I had started--all my stuff on the iPad, but a crashing Maps App. After a long wait for it to restore my data and sync my media, I was back to a useable iPad. I nervously opened Maps App and TA-DA! I could still search! Every key worked, Maps did not crash, and all my data was right where it belonged.
This is a very strange bug in Maps. I still hold to my previous assertion that the auto-fill function of the search text field in the app is trying to pull from something, i.e. Contacts, Mail, etc, and in doing so is pulling something it doesn't like and then it crashes.
I realize this is not a new fix, but I thought the detailed walk through would help some people.

IOS 8 crashes when maps appear.
